B. Porter. || THERE was never a time that honeymoon trips bad not possessed a wonderful fascinflation for her. As a cbthl she had eagerly devoured every available bit of Information concerning ine wedding Journeys of the entire village, and In time it became a nettled thing for each returning bride to subject herself to tbe admiring question* and worsbipfni homage of little Matilda Jones. When it was that tbe idea of her own wedding trip first came Fo ber she could not tell, but it grew witb ber growth and strengthened with her trengtb. until it became the l*est part of her life. The supjMisedly neceswnry adjuncts of a man and a marriage never occurred to her? her vision of a wedding journey contained herself alone. To be sure, as she grew older, a village youth would now and then shamble diffidently ut> the garden walk on (Sunday afternoon, or shyly offer his escort home from evening service at tbe little chnrcb. But all these Things only frightened her. and by and by the young men ceased from troubling. Then one day her mother died, and be was left all alone in tbe little white cottage at tbe end of the lane. As time passed tbe thin little face wore a look Of placid contentment, and tbe faded blue eyes looked out serenely?Matilda was about to take ber wedding journey. Away In the top of the tiny bouse, far back in a bureau drawer, lay a pile of money. She could tell tbe history of almost every penny there. This was the dollar ber pickled pear* bad brought and that was the quarter aaved on tbe trimming for ber black alpaca dress. All thin little pile of nlck?ls and dimes she had earned selling blackberries, and that beautiful sbinhtg gold piece bad been sent to ber on ber eighteenth birthday by her uncle. This particularly dingy five-cent piece she bad gained -when a mere slip of a girl pulling weeds in tbe garden. It was tbe first money nbe had ever earned, and she bad Immediately dedicated it to her wedding journey. She made dally pilgrimages to the brine at tbe top of the house, and lov tngiy fingered her accumulated treasure*. She thought?she wag almost lure?she had enough now. There were oearl.v twenty whole dollaht! She caught her breath at the audacity of pending such a fortune, but. after all. Ibis was her very own?It did not rob her scanty Income in the least; It bad been saved for yean: for this very purpose. When people took wedding trips they wore new thing* She looked doubtKUrtlr nlnnnA hmaKoil It? | ftUliJ Ul uri UM\a UI|W%H, */? ? ponged it?pressed it?and regarded it srltb a dubious sigh. It would bave to do. 8be certainly could not afford a new dress. Bnt in some trepidation be did invest in wbite cotton cloth and embroidered edging, and ber cbeeks grew pink with excitement of making tbe unwonted finery. Her evenings were especially delightful. Sbe would go luto tbe parlor and bring out tbe big atlas, and reverently turn tbe pages until sbe came to the map 01 urr uwu iurre, utr sixiu for*finger would find tbe black dot which stood for the little village, and ber eyes would gloat over tbe unknown world before ber. Just above that dot?where all those black lines met?was tbe junction, and sometimes sbe held her breath as she * carried ber finger away out along one Of those lines, and stopinnl with a little ftsp of delight at the extreme end of tbe map. Then she would draw a long Jgb and shake her head. and. giving a qnick bitch to ber chair, would settle berself to the delightful task of marking out ber wedding journey. Sbe would go to the junction by tage. Then she would follow one of those little black lines until she came tn that linre ronml rinir with 11 ft fit In the middle. Such a bit of a way It looked to be on tbe map, bat she knew It was forty miles from home, and a big city! Her breatb came fast and she trembled a little when she thought of a hotel. Yes?she should go to one! She bad never been to a hotel?a real hotel ?she thought, regarding the village Inn with fine ncorn. She was not quite rare she would know bow to behave? but she should certainly go. Whoever beard of a wedding trip without a hotel! 8be decided to stny three days, perhaps four, and she looked fondly at the little round ring or. the map. which CVUiaiiini w wauj uniKUiiui tin. Then she would close tbe book mi go to bed, only to dream of wonderful electric car ride* to tbe moon. At la?t tbe great day came. It dawned clear and clnudlegs, and a very bappy Matilda cllmtted tbe stair* for her Ireamre. Joyously abe jrraspcd thA nrM*iAim niU with ?HiM<r h.ifwlw then looked ruefully at the empty Rpot in the drawer. 8be hesitated a moment, quickly found the dingy nickel, and smiled content as she placed it back In iti old comer and closed the drawer. With trembling hands she arrayed bcrself in ber wedding garments and oeited herself on the doorstep to wait for the stage. "Matilda Jones looks nJmoM handsome this morning, with ber cbceks so jtejiSi'T ill' . pink." uid a pretty girl on tbe back seat to ber companion, as tbe coach stopped for it* passenger. "Why. Nellie," wild Matilda to this same pretty girl, as she clambered In, "am 1 going to have you to ride with? That will be nice. I'm sureT' "Yes, 1 am going up to the junction to do some shoppiug?you know I'm pretty busy these days," said she. with nil adorable blush, which suddenly reminded Matilda that it was waring Nellie's wedding day. This warmed her heart to ber at once, for was she not ou ber own wedding trip? She x beamed anew on Nellie as she settled n hervelf comfortably for the two-mile drive. How tile sun shone and the birds sang, and bow good the air was to breathe! "Are you going away for long. Miss Matilda?' inquireu ihiihh.v. "No?only a little trip." she replied, trying to look unconcerue<.l. as if trips were an everyday occurrence with her. hut the red deepened in her cheek* and her voice trembled a little as she asked abruptly: "Where are you going to take your wedding trip, dear?" The girl colored painfully. "We can't take any at all. MisR Matilda?isn't It dreadful?" and the young face looked pinched and drawu with woe. "You see Jim's money, that he'd been saving up to go with/ gut all burned up In the Are. and?and?we've had to give it up!" she finished with a wail that clearly told her disappointment. Miss Matilda sat very still. She thought her heart had stopped beating ?then it gave a big thump, and there was a strange, tight feeling in her throat. She did not say anything, and by and by Nellie looked out the window with a grieved expression on her pretty face. When they reached the Junction the young girl turned her g head and said, constrainedly, as she Q illumed lichtlr from the coach: "I ho|K? you'll have a nice time. Miss tl Matilda." tl "Thank you," she murmured without h smiling. and clainl>ered slowly down. fi Then she walked along the platform b and sat down on an old settee on the ? shady side of the building. By and by a train rumbled in?shook n itself of passengers?gathered a new * lot?and rumbled out again. One?two c ?three trains did the same thing, and fi the forlorn little woman still sat on e the old settee. v "IMdn't you want to take one o' them U trains?" good-naturedly asked the bluecoated man. who had been curiously t watching her for some time. c She looked at him with dull eyes, and shook her head. r When the stage coach made its even ing trip to the village Nellie van surprised to find Mies Matilda on the . back geat. "Why. I didn't expect to see you so soou! Didn't yoa go?" asked the young girl pleasantly. "No, I bad?I bad a headache?I mean a throat-ache." stammered Matilda in confusion. The next night Nellie burst into her mother's room with an excited face, holding an open letter and a pasteboard box in her baud. "Mother?what do you think! I told Miss Matilda yesterday how we couldn't take any wedding trip, and she never saiil a word, and then I felt real cross, 'cause I thought she didn't care a bit. but just sec what that dear old inaid has done! "My Dear Nellie: I think wedding trips are the nicest things in the world, and I don't want you to give up yours. I had a little extra money that I did not know what to do with, so I send it to you for your wedding trip. I hope you will have a nice time. Your friend, , "Matilda Jones." Aud Nellie's tears dropped fast on the dimes and nickels that rolled out of the pasteltoard box. Away at the top of a tiny house, in a bureau drawer, a lone nickel keepa guard over a dainty pik> of wedding garments.?The Criterion. fralt Tkm Alone the Highway.
